The Phoenix Construction District is responsible for the administration
of construction projects in the Greater Phoenix Metropolitan area.
These projects include Interstate Highway projects, State Highway
projects, Federally Funded Local Government projects, and construction
of the Maricopa
Association of Governments (MAG) Regional Freeway System.
The District participates in all phases of the planning and development
process. In cooperation with MAG, Valley
Project Management and the Phoenix
Maintenance District proposes projects for scoping and ultimate
inclusion into the 5-Year Plan. District personnel participate in
planning and design meetings and provide constructability review
of projects.
The District is funded with a $9.5M internal operating budget that
supports 204 full-time employees in eight Construction Field Offices,
one Landscape Construction Field Office, two Area Materials Laboratories,
an Electrical/FMS Inspection office, and a Survey Support Office.
The District also maintains a Valley Project Information Office,
adjunct to ADOT’s Community Relations Office, to provide project
specific information for residents and businesses potentially affected
by active construction. Numerous Construction Alerts and Corridor
Status Updates are designed, produced and distributed to keep an
open communications link with Valley residents.
